So something about me is that I really like puppets. I grew up on puppet shows. My puppet interest comes in phases, but it always comes back.
I also really like to write!! Currently, I have two big stories in the works. There's Ollie and Lucky Against the World, which I posted about before. I deleted the side-blog for it, because I kept changing it. That one has a bit of puppetry.
My other is No Flash Photography Please, and that one is completely puppets! It actually crosses over with Against the World at one point! This one was really made to expand upon the secondary world I'm making.
One thing I'm historically bad at is character design. I can make stories and personalities all day long, but the designs give me lots of trouble. I'd love to share them here if I had them. But I'm working on it!! Trying my best!
I want to post about the stories more, but I'm worried about spoilers, but I also just really wanna ramble about it, haha! Maybe someday I'll tell you about it.

No but can we talk about how fantastic Yamaguchi Kappei's voice acting here is. How we simply know - with eyes closed and on the first drop of 'ORE WA' - that this is Kuroba Kaito and NOT Kudou Shinichi doing the usual movie intro.

Dude the 'take attention away from Scott' immediately makes me think of abusive situations, not even mentioning the fact these kids are so worried about the mental state of their professor. like guys thats not supposed to be your problem.
And its not like charles doesnt know about these kids pasts and like experiences with abuse, in the same fucking issue is cyclops backstory in which he is being manipulated and abused by Jack, who he actively was given orders by in a similar sense to Charles.
"He's still as dangerous as ever" LIKE BRO THAT IS A CHILD. How is he supposed to know Charles wont treat him similarly? Especially since Jack has moments where it looks like he could care for him, when actually its for personal gain. The kids gotta be fucked up, treat them with care, Charles.
And yeah, not all the kids have it the same way, like Jean has a mostly happy family at home by this point, why is she acting the same way?
Shes been told to trust the adults her whole life abd living in this perfectionist situation with stakes as high as her own life, of course shes gonna act without question. And he tells her his reasons (only her) but theyre stupid bullshit reasons.
Like the 'you have to be perfect in training so youre alive on the field' is fine in hypotheticals, but youre working the kids to the bone and also dont have to send them?? THEYRE KIDS??? Fight your battles on your own or with adults dipshit.
Anyways, my point is that its a dangerous message to hold Charles to this moral hoity toityness when hes so morally questionable all the time. Let these kids live at the school like its a boarding school and not military quarters and have real relationships and stuff. Provide a safe space for mutants, but dont make them fistfight dangerous criminals in the street. This us common sense I fear.

(one of) my toxic writer trait(s) is that i TELL myself i can skip around and only write the good bits, especially when it's just for fun because Who Cares??, but then i Actually Get To A Place Where It'd Be Fine To Skip and i simply cannot do it, and this is how i keep accidentally turning short stories into short novels

For the writer ask game, #4, #23, #25?
4. How many WIPs do you have right now?
Technically, just one! All the little sidefics I've started are currently wrapped up and complete (tho there's more I wanna do still) so TMWN is the only WIP!
23. How do you choose where to end a chapter (if you have multi-chapter works)?
Oh lord. Shrug emoji. IDK, just where it... feels good! Like it feels like things have been wrapped up and we're at a good settling point! I do like cliffhangers, but I usually try not to leave anything too crazy as an unknown for a week, either. Sometimes I end a chapter because I realize I've written like almost thirty pages and I should probably figure out a stopping point and split things up, lmao. Chapter Twenty and Twenty-One were originally one chapter, but then I realized it was, like... almost fifty pages... so I went back and found a good place to split it up, lmao.
25. Have you ever upset yourself with your own writing?
Oh yeah. For sure. Sometimes I'll, like... tap into something sad by accident. Like, I'll be writing something sad/emotional/upsetting, and then I'll think about it too hard and get really upset (usually it's less something I've experienced and more something that someone else has experienced. Like. There've been times I've written about Yoshi being scared about his children's safety, and then thought about my mom losing her son, and then I'll suddenly be really fucked up about it.) I also have a tendency of, like... giving the TMWN boys things I don't have? Like. A lot of their experiences, especially childhood memories and aspects of their relationships, are things that I wish I had. I am, quite frankly, not close with any of my living family members. Part of the story, for me, is giving them the stuff I want but never got and will likely never have. And then sometimes I'll get kind of sad about it? But usually, it's okay. I like giving them good things. <3

After I think two months of not drawing, I return.
✨ Her ✨ She's consumed my thoughts /silly
Gray background and transparent
I forgot to sign it but I have been doodling and neglecting my responsibilities for far too long to go back and edit.
Do I know how to draw hats and hair? No. That's why my persona is a frog. But I tried my darndest!
And a version of my silly little doodles!
I definitely wanna draw her again sometime, after I have a proper warm up and don't just wing it, but for how, here I am, hehe!!

honestly, the barbie movie came out exactly when i needed it most.
for a while now I've felt really sad and ugly and hollow. and this movie comes out and i feel . loved and wanted. and heard. and understood.
and i can look at my own reflection and admire my face without feeling repulsed. and i love my cheeks and my wrinkles and my acne. and it all takes time and effort but im willing to do it to love myself more .
